The World we live in


breathe for a moment for all dats left
never know what the future might just bring
in this world full of murder, rape and theft
we try to believe but we are left falling

sons are lost and children are dead
for the good of the country all dats said
but it wont be forgotten and wont be forgiven 
for in the name of war mothers lost their children

lonely nights left cold and weak
hardly enough breath left to speak
not a morsel for days and hes in the streets
life for this kid is indeed very bleak 

we pray to god everytime we desire sumthn we need
what about those kids who cant find enough food to eat
tonight i'll pray for those who know what  has been
tonight i'll pray for a change in the world we live in..

I think, these days, people are too concerned and worried about their inner circle, that more often than not, they get confined to their self set limits. So that is where their thinking also ends, and their inner circle is all they care about and live for. Their life is all about, me and the things that affect me..


Its funny how, 2000 rupees looks inexpensive while buying a new pair of shoes, and 2 rupees is so valuable when it comes to giving to a beggar
Its funny how, people cry at the pain of their friends and family, and barely a look of sympathy to people whom they don't care about
Its funny how, food is wasted in your households, where half the world is dying of starvation
Its funny how, people bargain to save 50rupees to eat n drink junk, to eventually spend 5000 on medicines to bail them out of their health issues.
Its funny how, apparently 'old fashioned' clothes are thrown away in the dustbin or used as cleaning cloths, where children in the street have none to cover their body.


I want to live in a world where people are dancing and playing in the rain in unity, without any class, cultural, racial or social divide. 
I want to live in a world where people take the world as their home, and not just their apartment
I want to live in a world, where, there is equality, brotherhood & friendship
I want to live in a world, where there is no religion, no boundaries, no country
I want to live in a world. where there is love
I want to live in a world, where there is no God
I want to live in a world, where people see the 'God" within each other, and respect and fear that, and not any external source of power
I want to live in a world where people are happy!


I want to live in a world, where people are living as human beings and not some blood hungry hounds chasing money, power, post or whatever. I just want to live in a happy & content world. It maybe a just a dream, but this is what i wish for, and i will do my best to do my bit to change the world i live in at the moment. And i am not the only one, who is taking an oath like this, check out the following video, to see the effort of this insirational man, who wants to create a change in the society. And to him, I salute..! Sir, you are truly an inspiration and a  big motivation. 


So, i urge my readers, please look beyond your lives.. Expand your circle, Think big.. Don't categorize people are friends and 'others'.. Feel for everyone.. Wake up to social issues.. Don't just talk about the change you want to see, rather as Gandhiji said, Be the change you want to see.. And even the smallest of effort can take flight to provide a big impact..
